Guide to Safe Scouting
All participants in official Scouting activities should become familiar with the Guide to Safe Scouting and be aware of state or local government regulations that supersede Boy Scouts of America policies and guidelines. The Guide to Safe Scouting provides an overview of Scouting policies and procedures rather than comprehensive, standalone documentation. For some items, the policy statements are complete. Unit leaders are expected to review the additional reference material cited prior to conducting such activities.
In situations not specifically covered in this guide, activity planners should evaluate the risk or potential risk of harm, and respond with action plans based on common sense, community standards, the Boy Scout motto, and safety policies and practices commonly prescribed for the activity by experienced providers and practitioners.

I love this app-but it says some of the content is not available on the 'free version'. I cannot find another version-to pay to see rest of app. Its awesome to have the GTSS ( BSA Rules Bible) in palm of my hand to 'clarify' for Leaders ;-)
I would give it 5 stars if the developer would update and keep it current. Developer is also unresponsive.
As with other products by this developer, it appears this app is no longer being kept up to date. The latest GTSS can be found on the bsa website.
I can't open some sections on my nexus 7 or on my D4. It says something about a screen not being connected. Emailed the developer but got no reply.
Information is horribly out of date.
I love it thanks for making the app
Nicely organized but not the current version
Awesome app for a scout parent!
Way outdated. Why? This document is updated numerous times a year.
because u helped me how to be safe....
Several sections of the appendix say "not available in free version" but there's no link to a paid version
Im a scout that is to be trusted
Love it
Very handy reference, well identified categories so you don't need a keyword search. Nothing superfluous.
Very useful. 4 stars because the app closes when selecting some sections.
New version was released July 2015
I am a scout from BANGLADESH.tnx for making this app,it is very helpful
This app is based on the 2011 version of the GTSS, which gets updated twice a year by the BSA, which means this app is many revisions behind. The developer seems to have abandoned this app. It's disappointing, since it would be a great resource if it were kept up to date.
